Standing Up for Liberty and Justice for Gays

Need a little inspiration to get your Monday started? Want a little reminder that we all need to stand up for what we believe in? If so you’ll want to meet Will Phillips, an extraordinary 10 year old who has waged a war on his school by refusing to say the pledge of allegiance until gays have the same rights as everyone else.
The below interview with him is kind of amazing and makes me want to find a way to do something for gay marriage rights amidst my daily actives. If we all were able to protest in some way maybe things would change (faster than they already are).
